The South Park neighborhood strings lights along its trees, lamp posts, roofs and courtyards through the season, and hosts a one-night Winter Walkabout where local shops and restaurants stay open late and the South Park sign is lit at 5 pm.
Best time to arrive. Sunset in San Diego is around 4:44 PM in mid-December, fully dark by about 5:11 PM. A typical December night here bottoms out near 46°F, so dress for standing around outside.
